Prime Minister Shigeru Ishiba announced his intention to step down after his ruling coalition suffered a historic setback in July national elections. The coalition lost majorities in both the lower and upper houses of parliament, eliminating its ability to control legislative processes. The electoral outcome represents a significant shift in parliamentary power and will compel reconfiguration of alliances and leadership within the government. The resignation triggers a leadership transition and potential negotiation among parties to establish a new governing majority. Subsequent actions by opposition and coalition partners will determine the timeline and process for forming replacement leadership.
